He began his football career at América de Cali, making his professional debut in 2005. There, he accumulated two goals in 33 appearances in all his spell at Cali-based team.

In April 2008, Reina headed to Brazil for Cruzeiro[1][2] and in August 2008, joined the Série B side Ipatinga on loan. In the summer break of the 2010 Série A campaign, he signed a season-long loan deal with Ceará Sporting Club.

After a brief spell at Argentina's Club Olimpo during the 2013-14 season, in mid 2014 he joined Colombian powerhouse Millonarios. In July 2015, he returned to South Korea and his former club Seongnam FC, where he scored one goal in fifteen 2015 K League Classic matches.

On 9 January 2016, it was confirmed that Reina joined Chilean club Colo-Colo on loan, the country's most successful club.[3]

In 2017, he joined Deportivo Pasto of the Categoría Primera A. He played both the Apertura and the Finalizacion tournaments of the 2017 Categoría Primera A season. He had another brief period at Ceara in 2018, before moving back to Colombia with Once Caldas in 2019.
